		<title>Succumbing to the Camera Phone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I do not like camera phones in the same way that I don&#8217;t particularly care for flash photography; you can produce good results (or at least passable results) with either, but the majority of stuff that comes out of it is just pure crap.
I recently moved to one of Sprint&#8217;s CDMA Android offerings, the HTC [...]]]></description>

		<title>JasperWrapper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have just wrapped up (no pun intended) work on an initial version of a CLI JasperReports wrapper, based heavily off the work of jasperCall. It&#8217;s also quite similar to the work being done on RunJasperReports, although it was specifically designed to be integrated into FreeMED&#8217;s reporting engine, as it is put together as a [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve decided to do a little feature on films that I liked for one reason or another, and to start out, I have chosen a scifi/comedy flick from the 1980s called The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension.

It&#8217;s a pretty funny send-up of scifi movies which take themselves too seriously. I think that [...]]]></description>

		<title>OpenBSD pf states monitoring</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The simple recipe is to add this to root&#8217;s cron:

* * * * * /usr/bin/gmetric -c /etc/gmond.conf -n pf_states -v $(/usr/local/sbin/pftop -b &#124; grep pfTop &#124; cut -d/ -f2 &#124; cut -d, -f1) -t int32 -d 120 2>&#038;1 &#124; logger -t pf_states

and install the pftop package along with a gmetric binary and a working /etc/gmond.conf [...]]]></description>

		<title>Backing up MAPI contacts and calendar from Exchange Server</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a hate/hate relationship with Exchange Server. I hate it, and I&#8217;m pretty sure it hates me.
Why someone would design a system to expose every bit of data for a system through a nice standard protocol like IMAP, then only allow certain things to be viewed through a piece of crap proprietary protocol like [...]]]></description>

		<title>IMAP Synchronization</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hate it. IMAP Synchronization, that is.
In an effort to migrate users from one *shudder* Exchange provider to another (after getting shot down for proposing first Zimbra, then standard mail server stuff, then Openchange), I have been going through all of the available IMAP sync software that I could find.
mbsync (http://isync.sourceforge.net/mbsync.html) &#8211; We use this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Exposing SOAP Services with Apache&#8217;s ProxyPass</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have recently had cause to proxy a J2EE CXF service through an apache 2.2 instance, and thought it would be nice to share my findings. (This was all done on a Debian system.)
First of all, the mod_proxy pieces have to be enabled using a2enmod proxy.
A fragment has to be added with the proxying bits [...]]]></description>

		<title>Community projects and bug fail</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I really like Ubuntu &#8212; I use it for all of my workstations/laptops, and have for the last several years. I do not, however, like it when people tell me that something that&#8217;s clearly and demonstrably a bug in a system simply isn&#8217;t a bug. Fie on your crappy PPA build system, I&#8217;m just not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kill Bill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Kill that damn &#8220;healthcare&#8221; bill. Kill it dead.
I&#8217;m as shocked as anyone else that I&#8217;m agreeing with morons who wear teabags on their hats and think that universal healthcare is some bizarre form of fascism, and that everyone is a Nazi. Not to fear, I&#8217;m not agreeing with them on *everything*, just on one thing: [...]]]></description>

		<title>US Healthcare Reform is Dead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yep, that&#8217;s it. It has been dead for quite some time now. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s not always apparent *why* that has been the case.
Warning: Political and healthcare-related opinions below, linked to various reputable sources.
Public Option, Single Payer, Medicare for All? The most contentious part of healthcare reform has been the concept of a government run health [...]]]></description>
